Which is now the top prescription medicine for severe headaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well I would try: Non prescirption medicine first. In general you dont really want to mask yuor headaches. What if you had a brain tumor or aneurysm. Taking pain pills to make a headache go away should only be done after you have a good exam by a doctor to make sure you have no underlying reason to have a headache.
